What is the Divisibility Rule of 392?

The divisibility rule for 392 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 392 without using the division method. To check whether 7840 is divisible by 392, follow these steps:

 

Step 1: Check divisibility by 8. The last three digits of 7840 are 840, and 840 is divisible by 8.

 

Step 2: Check divisibility by 49 (since 392 = 8 × 49). Divide the number by 49. The number 7840 divided by 49 gives us 160, which is an integer.

 

Since 7840 is divisible by both 8 and 49, it is divisible by 392.divisibility rule of 392

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 392

Learn the divisibility rule to help master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 392.

 

 

Know the multiples of 392:

Memorize the multiples of 392 (392, 784, 1176, etc.) to quickly check the divisibility.
 

 

Use the factors of 392:

Since 392 is 8 × 49, check divisibility by both 8 and 49 to determine divisibility by 392.
 

 

Repeat the process for large numbers:

For larger numbers, first check divisibility by 8, then by 49. Repeat the process until you find a smaller number that is divisible by both.
 

 

Use the division method to verify:

Use the division method as a way to verify and crosscheck your results. This will help in verification and learning.

Problem 4

A company has 980 employees and wants to organize them into teams of 392. Is this possible?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

No, 980 employees cannot be organized into teams of 392.

Explanation

Verify the possibility by:


1) Dividing 980 by 392 to check for an integer result.


2) 980 ÷ 392 ≈ 2.5, not an integer.


Therefore, 980 is not divisible by 392.
